When Democrats lose an election, that's not really a setback. First they pressure the elected Republicans to betray the people who elected them. Then they go to the courts to shut down the Republican agenda.

And if that fails? They hold new special elections, before the regularly-scheduled elections, until they win. They're trying to use off-time elections to reverse the results of the real election, in hopes that fewer Republicans will show up to vote.

This is sore loser behavior. They won't accept that people have rejected their failed ideas. In a democracy, the people are allowed to reject either party.

I think people are sick of the left and it's we shall overcome schtick. Once they win you get Spitzer and Weinergate and 14 trillion dollar deficits, and behind it all is the spectre of the Khmer Rouge. I was talking with a convinced Obama-ite from 2008 last night and she said she is going to vote for Romney, and switch parties, if he wins. It takes a very innocent kind of sucker to fall for the Democratic pitch.

What an alarmingly foolish statement by a former United States Senator. The implication, of course, is that rules of engagement are for the chumps on the other side. Seems to implicitly justify any sort of tactic, doesn't it?

That "Peace" sign reminded me of a house on the north side of University Avenue, across the street from the Mixer's Bar near the West Bank of the UofM, which had the peace sign hanging upside down. In other words: "Drop it!" That was a great place to hold rent parties back then.

Maybe that's what the Madison Socialists should do occassionally, hold parties with plenty of booze and lousy music.

That would make as much sense as having Russ give his rousing, uplifting speech (Not!), and the Socialists strutting around singing their "This is what democracy looks like" spiel.

I remember last year when Russ his MSM supporters tried to convince us that he wasn't just a big lefty hack. Rather he was a fair and balanced maverick. A man committed to fiscal disciplne and balanced budgets.

Wouldn't the maverick move here be to support Walker's budget that is balanced with no gimmicks? You want long term vision? Making the hard decisions to protect future generations? It sure ain't Russ yelping at tent city for six figure pay packages for union teachers.

That "peace" sign! Sigh! Someone really like to "progress" back to the good old flower children days. In those days, they refused to work for a living, today they want other people to work to pay for their living. The "greatest" generation spawned the "entitlest" generation.

What an unpleasant sentimant--mildly cute but deserving parental correction in a little brat playing with a sibling, but unworthy of someone wanting to be an eected representative of a democratic people. He and those who cheered him are just over-aged brats.

"We're here because the big corporate interests in this country decided about 20 years ago 'I think the first thing we'll do is pass a bunch of trade agreements and ship oversees all the jobs of the people in the private sector,' That's the first thing they decided to do. They got the job done on that. Ruthlessly tricking both parties into it."

Hahahaha. That's the best line of the speech. "Ruthlessly tricking BOTH parties into it."

Since, you know, it was Democrats who pushed the North American Free Trade Agreement through the Congress and it was Democrat Bill Clinton who signed it into law.

Russ Feingold is a fucking dolt for reminding people it was Democrats who shipped their jobs overseas. And the "giant sucking sound" of American jobs being shipped overseas was predicted, accurately, by Independent Party presidential candidate Ross Perot.

Why are these Democrats not throwing fucking tomatoes at this moron? Why is he still invited to these events when he's such a political idiot?

Russ uttering the much repeated lie that the SCOTUS overturned 100 years of law and allowed corporate contributions to campaigns. Of course if Obama can lie in front of the judges at a SOTU, why not a has been Senator...

Pointing out the rude, entitled nastiness of those who commit breaking, entering and vandalizing of public buldings while calling it 'peaceful' and 'nonviolent' isn't a 'meme'.

It's just being accurate, seeing with your own eyes and acknowledging the fact that the unionistas want to intimidate other people into agreeing with them, complete with union thug threat letters to local businesses and death threats to politicians.

Quit pretending they are peaceful because that sort of behavior is not.

Didn't Walker and the Republicans win the last election and don't they get to govern until the next election at which time maybe the Dems can retake control? No! Only the Dems can take control. Ever. Anything else is NOT ALLOWED!

Latest polls show he could pick either the Senate or Governorship, and crush whoever he runs against. So yea, relevant. All the Koch/Rove money in the world and running fake Democrats won't save GOP hide in the state in all likelyhood.

Russ sounds a lot like Rand Paul, who seems to have taken up Russ's cause in terms of protecting our freedoms, but of course Russ has not attacked the the American made dual flush toilets. Instead Russ stands up for porta pottie--use something we can all wait in line for while working to re-call Walker's New Order.

Oh. Wait -

Sister of Russ: Rusty, you weaselly little worm, you lost. In fact, you've now lost five times in a row. Now put on the rainbow sarong and the umbrella hat and shut up or I'll make you eat another bug.

That will be Governor Feingold soon. Get used to it. A breath of fresh air in a room full of wide open ass. The stench is overwhelming.

Garage, I love your reliably wrong predictions. No one does them better than you. In fact, just after Colby Rasmus doubled in the top of the sixth yesterday, I turned to the Mrs. and said, "Don't worry. Garage predicted no sweep. He's hiding in his bunker wearing his away uniform and sipping warm Miller. Brewers will sweep."

Still not convinced Russ would ever run for Gov. Doesn't play to his strengths. He's more big picture, 30,000 foot kind of guy. Governor is really an administrative position...daily grind of running something.

Senators don't really run anything. He'd be like a fish out of water.

He sounds about as angry as he did during non-concession speech in Nov.

I, for one, will be really flippin' glad when all of this mess is over...and they couldn't wait 24 hours...
